Course Objectives
The course surveys the large slice of public policy directed at delivering live performances and access to plastic arts, both across the Western world and from the national level down to the local level. It integrates new public management theory, illustrative case examples, policy analysis, and a broad familiarity with the facts on the ground and the literature in arts policy and management.In the first part of the course we develop acoherent background of national choices for overall arts support frameworks, and we identify a set of illuminating and useful descriptors for these distinctive models.The second part of the course takes the perspective of a not for profit organization operating in the arts field and it focuses on the range of techniques and processes that arts organizationscan employ to successfully collect funds from different public and private stakeholders.
